We atheists hold a funny POV, because if/when we're "proven" correct, we won't be around to go "Ha! You see?!" to all the rest.
Properly processed, though, this should make us realize that we won't get the last word in most situations. I'll have my truth, you'll have yours, and we'll either live together as best we can with our convictions... or rush each other even faster to dust.
Proving that we were "right" isn't how we live well.
It's how we show up for each other in the fray that counts.
@MLClark it depends on one's definition of Atheist. Your post implies the "there isn't a god" position. An alternative that is present based is "there is no evidence to support the existence of god".
@MLClark I know I appreciate my cognitive gears getting shifted too.

I love so very much whenever you nudge my posts for deeper thinking. Thanks for always being present to push / challenge / complicate ideas that could easily come across as simplistic. :)
